Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

Since the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
